PLANETARY/THE AUTHORITY Back to Press

By: Rob Allstetter
Date: Thursday, December 27, 2001

DC Comics announced on Wednesday that it is producing a new printing on PLANETARY/THE AUTHORITY: RULING THE WORLD.


The one-shot, by Warren Ellis, Phil Jimenez and Andy Lanning, was originally published in the summer of 2000. The story pits the two teams against "invasions from beyond space and deranged gentleman-horror-writers in blockbuster movie-style action."


"This reprinting was brought about because of the suggestion of Jim Hanley (of Jim Hanley's Universe in New York City) that we bring some Prestige Format publications back into print," says Bob Wayne, DC's vice-president - sales and marketing. "We then conducted a survey of our
retailer focus group for potential titles, and this project was at the top of the list."


"I'm really glad to see this happening," says Scott Dunbier, WildStorm's group editor. "It's too good a book to remain out of print."


PLANETARY/THE AUTHORITY: RULING THE WORLD is scheduled to reach stores on April 17.
